His name is BIG JIM ...... he's a 17 hand tall Belgian Draft horse and
he's
now a permant resident of BYTE SIZE ESTATES.
He's tempermant is very VERY doctile ....... stands very still to be
harnessed up ..... pulls a wagon like there's nothing behind him.
The people who we bought him from had body clipped him -- and didn't do a
very good job of it either ... he looks ragged because if his clipping
...... they roached his mane too. He has a little rain rot (that looks like
it's healing but does still need some attention) and he's underweight (hips
are
thin -- ribs showing and his whithers are high and look like it needs some
"meat" on them. These people told me that they had bought him a little less
than a year ago and he was really in bad shape when they got him.
His feet are sound -- and he's just been recently shod -- up to date on
his
shots and negative coggins.
He looked at me and melted me (even as ugly as he is right now
).
Sooooooooo, he's here ...... I know with the right kind of love and
attention he'll be BEAUTIFUL in time !! Besides, the price was
right -- and he came with is own draft harness stuff too!
